<div class="xg_user_generated">Proverbs 16:18 (NIV) - Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall.<br/><br/> Today’s commentary by Dave Whitehead, Senior Pastor, GraceNYC.org<br/><br/> Pride has been depicted for centuries as a destructive force. How many examples do we need to see before we realize that pride exposes our insecurities, and our insecurities will drive us to our ruin? It is far better to work on the inner qualities of our character than the outward hubris of success, for without that inner awareness we too will become examples of pride—and that very pride will become our downfall.</div> The Daily Bible Verse - theDa…tag:discgolfer.ning.com,2014-03-09:1809917:Comment:25977512014-03-09T15:47:36.448ZJack Moorehttp://discgolfer.ning.com/profile/JackMoore

Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.<br/><br/>Today’s commentary by Dave Whitehead, Senior Pastor, GraceNYC.org<br/><br/>What would happen to churches if this attitude prevailed? What could the church do if no one cared whose name was on top? This is what Paul challenged the Philippians with and it is a good challenge for us today. Do we ultimately trust that God sees our lives, or do we jockey for attention using spiritual language? This is a test that every follower of Christ must pass in order to go forward in maturity.</div> The Daily Bible Verse - theDa…tag:discgolfer.ning.com,2014-03-05:1809917:Comment:25977322014-03-05T15:22:53.214ZJack Moorehttp://discgolfer.ning.com/profile/JackMoore

We all have weaknesses, and unless we focus our minds and hearts on what God has said, we become an easy target for the devil and his appetites. So keep your eyes and ears open, because this is a fight that will find you, no matter where you are.</span></div>

<div class="mbs _5pbx userContent">Isaiah 1:17 (NIV) - Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow.<br/><br/>Today’s commentary by Dave Whitehead, Senior Pastor, GraceNYC.org<br/><br/>Earlier in this passage, God stated that He was not moved with Israel’s dead religious activities. Their pious observances had become a way to avoid true responsibility. In a time when there was no social security or welfare, orphans and widows were relegated to poverty and great need. One of the results of a relationship with God will be a desire to help the weak and helpless. As the book of James states, this is when religion is pure and undefiled.</div> The Daily Bible Verse - theDa…tag:discgolfer.ning.com,2014-02-23:1809917:Comment:25972512014-02-23T14:46:15.241ZJack Moorehttp://discgolfer.ning.com/profile/JackMoore

As we look at the fractured relationships in our lives, have we made every effort to live in peace? There are some things that we may avoid simply because they are uncomfortable, but God uses the uncomfortable to bring His holiness into our lives. Are you experiencing dullness in your relationship with God? Check your earthly relationships to make sure you are doing all that you can, for the two issues may be connected.</div> The Daily Bible Verse - theDa…tag:discgolfer.ning.com,2014-01-26:1809917:Comment:25964792014-01-26T19:10:58.802ZJack Moorehttp://discgolfer.ning.com/profile/JackMoore

<div class="mbs _5pbx userContent">Colossians 3:15 (NIV) - Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful.<br/> Today’s commentary by Dave Whitehead, Senior Pastor, GraceNYC.org<br/> Have you ever thought about being called to peace? According to the apostle Paul, our membership in the church should be marked by peace. This peace is more than an umpire deciding who is right or wrong; peace in the church is an indication that Christ is ruling in our hearts. When we decide to make Jesus the ruler of our life, His lordship will challenge our egos, any envy, dissensions, or gossip to bow the knee before Him. How about you? Are you at peace with your brothers and sisters? If not, obey the call to peace and let Christ rule in your heart.</div> The Daily Bible Verse - theDa…tag:discgolfer.ning.com,2014-01-06:1809917:Comment:25954462014-01-06T20:28:45.863ZJack Moorehttp://discgolfer.ning.com/profile/JackMoore

That’s why the Lord of time asks us to give time to Him in prayer. The picture of prayers like incense is one of worship. Our time, our talent, our attention is pulled away from our everyday affairs to remember the One who gave us the time and talent to begin with. Don’t let prayer be limited to rote words with no connection to your soul; see prayer as an act of worship that is meant to refresh you as you honor the LORD.</div> The Daily Bible Verse - theDa…tag:discgolfer.ning.com,2013-12-17:1809917:Comment:25936762013-12-17T14:16:43.236ZJack Moorehttp://discgolfer.ning.com/profile/JackMoore

He <span class="text_exposed_hide">...</span><span class="text_exposed_show">would reveal the everlasting Father and bring peace between this infinite being and His finite creation. Unfortunately, Israel at this time was falling apart under Assyria, but God embedded into this decaying nation the very promise of the Messiah, and He fulfilled those promises in Jesus Christ. It is comforting to know that when we feel like our lives are falling apart God promises us hope in Jesus Christ. Jesus still reveals the Father to us in wonderful ways.</span></div>

<div class="mbs _5pbx userContent">2 Corinthians 4:6 (NIV) - For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ.<br/> Today’s commentary by Dave Whitehead, Senior Pastor, GraceNYC.org<br/> We are able to walk with God because He illuminates our heart with His light. Christ came into our darkness with His light so that we can be like a “flashlight” to others. So our goal is to not simply challenge people with the claims of the Bible; our goal is also to talk about how Christ brought light into our lives. The power of our testimony becomes the light of God for the world.</div>
